The Garden's restaurant Sassafras became the first Certified Green RestaurantTM in the state of Missouri in 2008. The official designation was made by the Green Restaurant Association (GRA), a national non-profit organization whose mission is “to create an ecologically sustainable restaurant industry.”

What does it mean to be "Green" or "Sustainable"?
Going Green involves practices and product choices that conserve energy, water, and other limited natural resources. Going Green reduces waste through reuse, recycling, composting and more! Sustainable living places great value on meeting the needs of the current generation without comprimising the ability of future generations to live happy, healthy, and successful lives.
